Installation

Download and install the latest mantis drivers like this:

hg clone http://mercurial.intuxication.org/hg/s2-liplianin
cd s2-liplianin
make
sudo make install
sudo reboot

Old mantis repository instructions: You need support for I²C in your Kernel for this card to work (that's normal). Download the necessary mantis-modules from Jusst.de or use Mercurial:

 $ hg clone http://jusst.de/hg/mantis
 $ cd mantis
 $ make
 $ make install

If everything went well, the following modules will load:

 dvb-core
 tda10021
 cu1216
 mantis
 b2c2-flexcop-pci

Troubleshooting

I had problems compiling all of the modules in the current mantis package from [1] but i could solve them by doing a make menuconfig and deselecting most modules except those i really needed (see above)
